The 2006 Crisis

This site was inspired by the events that culminated in the tragic disintegration of the rule of law in 2006. UNPol was remobilised in response to the political violence and social tensions and this is an archive of the regular security reports.

UNPol in East Timor Security Briefing 17 August 2007



This is a broadcast of the UN Police in Timor-Leste to provide you with information about the security situation around the country.

The security situation in Timor-Leste as a whole has been calm, but Viqueque and Lautem remain tense.

United Nations police officers (UNPol) in conjunction with the national police of Timor-Leste (PNTL) and the International Stabilization Force (ISF) remain fully deployed to respond to any disturbances that may emerge.

Today in Dili, UNPol attended eight incidents, none of which were major. They included a fight between two groups at around 1125hrs, and a burglary in Sakura Towers. Three arrests were made in yesterday in relation to drunken and threatening behavior.

UNPol have received no reports of any serious security incidents taking place yesterday in the districts.

The interagency humanitarian working group will tomorrow conduct humanitarian assessment missions to the affected areas in the eastern districts to assess the need for food, shelter, protection, child protection, education, health and nutrition, and water sanitation. The Government and UN assessment missions will provide a comprehensive analysis of the effect that violence has had on these areas, and will produce detailed list of what the people there need, with a view to meeting these needs as soon as possible.

The Police advise to avoid traveling during the night to the most affected areas. Please report any suspicious activities.  You can call 112 or 7230365 to contact the police 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
